Studies art and history of arts in Bogota, Madrid and New York. After receiving awards in Spain and continuing exhibitions.My women are young, free and sensual. They seduce and let themselves be seduced; they are those contemporary and modern women who say what they think and look for what they want.The so typical capitalism of our epoch has turned the human being materialistic. Technological advances as blackberries, ipads, ipods, the major brands and the advance of plastic surgeries have changed my women, and they couldn’t be the exception. That’s why these women (my women) who have become materialistic beings, are now materialized -almost literally-, reaching the point of being deteriorated, defragmented and crackled. Because at the end, they aren’t made of metal and so, they couldn’t handle this new condition. My women were made of love, soul and freedom.My women couldn’t get used to materialism, so they exploded. They exploded through an aqueous defragmentation in which color represents what they were before becoming metals.The truth is: metal oxidizes, deteriorates and changes because the environment and its own life make it change. That’s why my women are made of metals, rust and corrosion.
